1940 110 oil filter insyallation

Posted by Jim Boland On 2013/9/2 6:57:06

I am going to try to install a cannister oil filter from a 1953 Chevy on my '40 110. It looks the same as the original accessory one ,except for the bracket , which appears to line up with the holes on the cyl. head.My question is :what does the fitting look like where the lines go into the block ? Does it have three holes (inlet ,outlet ,pressure gauge)? Is it a special part or just a standard Weatherhead fitting ? Are the lines 5/16 "? The filter came off my grandfather's '53 Chevy , which I learned to drive in , so there is a sentimental connection I guess ! Any help or suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks.
Jim
